What is Green Light for the Little Red Train about?

Duffy the driver is waiting for the signal to change, and when it finally turns green, he sets off with Little Red Train. But he keeps going and going, rushing through the Channel Tunnel and into France before anyone realises what has happened. As the train travels through unfamiliar landscapes and lively towns, Duffy’s accidental journey becomes an exciting adventure. With bright, detailed illustrations and very little text, young readers can follow the train’s travels and discover something new on every page.
